Hot Water Beach is amazing. There are 2 underwater (hot) streams flowing beneath the beach that become uncovered 2 hours either side of low tide. Then all you need to do is search for the hot spots by digging in your feet (they change location slightly from day to day), and having found them dig yourself a little spa pool. The perfect activity for a couple, as I got to be a boy, digging in the sand and building things, and Friedi got her own spa pool. The water was exceptionally hot, with the top end of our pool actually burning our feet at some point! We stayed for 2 nights (to make sure we caught the tide times right), and then took the bus onto Rotorua.
